No word yet from my BCG R1 interview last week. Seems like it’s a no :(

Good idea to follow up or wait through end of the week? Email said that they would get back in a week. Would anyone who recently went through the process share their timeline on decision?

Thanks. And good luck for R2

If they said a week, wait until it’s been a week. No answer is better than an actual no

When last week? If it was on a Friday, you should wait it out imo and reach out next Monday if you don’t hear back

I (Spring Boot + Angular, FS, 6 YOE) interview candidates at the product company I work for.

People just show up with no prep. I interview for 4-6 YOE and these people aren't even expecting to write a single line of code. Even questions like "find the lesser of the two angles between the two hands of a clock, given the time" or simple geometry problems that don't need DSA knowledge is too hard to attempt.

They claim they know Angular/React/Spring without knowing basic Javascript/Java. 😒

Are you responsible for giving performance feedback? Avoid giving personality based feedback. Examples include telling an Asian person they are too quiet/shy or telling a Black person they are agressive/abrasive. DO NOT DO THIS. It clearly represents bias in Performance Management. Performance feedback should be tied to business outcomes with clear examples of what the person does well + how they can improve.
